Systems and methods for pre-rendering html code of dynamically-generated webpages using a bot

ABSTRACT

The system can using a bot to periodically visit one or more dynamically-generated webpages of a website and to automatically retrieve HTML code for the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the website. The system can further include automatically storing, in a content delivery computer, the HTML code for the one or more dynamically-generated webpages, wherein automatically storing the HTML code transforms the one or more dynamically-generated webpages from a dynamic content format into a static content format such that the one or more dynamically-generated webpages are transformed into one or more pre-rendered webpages. Further, the system can automatically transmit from the content delivery computer for display on a computing device of the user, the HTML code as a pre-rendered webpage in real-time. Other embodiments are disclosed.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 16/264,509 filed Jan. 31, 2019, to be issued as U.S. Pat. No. 11,341,315. U.S. application Ser. No. 16/264,509 is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates generally to pre-rendering HTML code of dynamically-generated webpages using a bot.

BACKGROUND

Conventional approaches for downloading a webpage for display on a computing device can take too long to complete due to the complexity of computer-run processes run for each webpage, such as a server-side process or a client-side process, which causes a viewer of the webpage to have to wait for the webpage to download and display. Moreover, each time another webpage is requested, a web server initiates the same computer-run process each and every time for each page requested from a user.

Additionally, elements in the drawing figures are not necessarily drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be exaggerated relative to other elements to help improve understanding of embodiments of the present disclosure. The same reference numerals in different figures denote the same elements.

The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” “fourth,” and the like in the description and in the claims, if any, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments described herein are, for example, capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein. Furthermore, the terms “include,” and “have,” and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, article, device, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements is not necessarily limited to those elements, but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, system, article, device, or apparatus.

The terms “left,” “right,” “front,” “back,” “top,” “bottom,” “over,” “under,” and the like in the description and in the claims, if any, are used for descriptive purposes and not necessarily for describing permanent relative positions. It is to be understood that the terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the apparatus, methods, and/or articles of manufacture described herein are, for example, capable of operation in other orientations than those illustrated or otherwise described herein.

The terms “couple,” “coupled,” “couples,” “coupling,” and the like should be broadly understood and refer to connecting two or more elements mechanically and/or otherwise. Two or more electrical elements may be electrically coupled together, but not be mechanically or otherwise coupled together. Coupling may be for any length of time, e.g., permanent or semi-permanent or only for an instant. “Electrical coupling” and the like should be broadly understood and include electrical coupling of all types. The absence of the word “removably,” “removable,” and the like near the word “coupled,” and the like does not mean that the coupling, etc. in question is or is not removable.

Users (e.g., 350-351) can send requests for webpages (e.g., dynamically-generated webpages) to a web server to receive a visible and/or interactive webpage in return. In many embodiments, generally a web browser sends a request (e.g., HTTP request) to a web server, the web server can provide the HTML code to and can process the HTML code into an HTML markup and build the webpage (e.g., process images, css, and javascript) to be rendered on a computer device. Depending on the complexity of the requested webpage (e.g., dynamic format, interactive format, static format, images), a web server can download a large amount of HTML code that can be suitable to render the whole requested webpage before the requested webpage can be visible and/or interactive on a user computer, such as 350,351. In many embodiments, a web browser sends a request (e.g., HTTP request) to a web server for an entire webpage and not just a fragment or portion (e.g., headers, footers) of the HTTP code. In general, conventional methods used for downloading HTML code for a webpage can include a web server using either a server-side rendering process or a client-side rendering process or a hybrid rendering process of both server-side and client-side rendering processes. (See FIGS. 6-7 and 9, as discussed below in further detail.)

In several embodiments, a web server can be programmed to use a particular process (e.g., server-side process, client-side process, hybrid process) to convert a suitable amount of HTML code that can result in rendering a requested webpage (e.g., dynamically-generated, statically-generated). In many embodiments, pre-rendering a dynamically-generated webpage and storing that webpage in a content delivery computer, such as content delivery server 315, can be used as part of computer programmed process resulting in the subsequent transmitting of a visible webpage (e.g., image) in real-time, in a pre-rendered format, directly to a user computer 340-341, which bypasses the conventional web server process (e.g., server-side rendering). In several embodiments, after the pre-rendered webpage has been stored in the content delivery computer, the content delivery computer can download the pre-rendered webpage to user computers 340, 341, for the users 350, 351, in response to requests from user computers to view that webpage.

In many embodiments, bot server 310, content delivery server 315, and/or application server 320 can respond to a user request from a user computer by sending a pre-rendered webpage (e.g., a homepage, a search page, an account page, a product display page) retrieved from the memory (e.g., cache) of a special-purpose computer (i.e., a content delivery server) to visibly display the pre-rendered webpage on the display of the user computer. In some embodiments, the pre-rendered webpage sent by application server 320 to the user computer is not the entire webpage, but rather only a portion of the webpage. In these embodiments, while application server 320 sends the portion of the webpage (i.e., the pre-rendered portion of the webpage), application server 320 can download the remaining HTML code (e.g., dynamically generated HTML code, Java Script) from the web server to build the remaining portion of the webpage and transmit it to the user computer.

Turning ahead in the drawings, FIG. 4 illustrates a flow chart for a method 400, according to an embodiment. Method 400 is merely exemplary and is not limited to the embodiments presented herein. Method 400 can be employed in many different embodiments or examples not specifically depicted or described herein. In some embodiments, the activities of method 400 can be performed in the order presented. In other embodiments, the activities of method 400 can be performed in any suitable order. In still other embodiments, one or more of the activities of method 400 can be combined or skipped. In many embodiments, system 300 (FIG. 3) can be suitable to perform method 400 and/or one or more of the activities of method 400. In many embodiments, system 500 (FIG. 5) can be suitable to perform method 400 and/or one or more of the activities of method 400. In these or other embodiments, one or more of the activities of method 400 can be implemented as one or more computer instructions (e.g., scripts) configured to run at one or more processing modules and configured to be stored at one or more non-transitory memory storage modules. Such non-transitory memory storage modules can be part of a computer system and/or network such as bot server 310 (FIG. 3), content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3), and/or user computers 340, 341 (FIG. 3). The processing module(s) can be similar or identical to the processing module(s) described above with respect to computer system 100 (FIG. 1).

In some embodiments, method 400 can comprise an activity 401 of using a bot to periodically visit one or more dynamically-generated webpages of a website and to automatically retrieve HTML code for the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the website. In various embodiments, the one or more dynamically-generated webpages can be the most commonly visited webpages of a website, including a homepage of the web site, a search page of the web site, and so on. In a number of embodiments, the one or more dynamically-generated webpages can be different homepages of the website of a retailer, where different store locations of the retailer have the different homepages. In many embodiments, a bot can periodically visit one or more dynamically-generated webpages and/or one or more statically-generated webpages, and the bot can be associated with a virtual website of a retailer and/or a website of a physical store. In several embodiments, the bot can periodically visit each of the one or more webpages (e.g., dynamically-generated webpages) at least once every hour to every six hours. In other embodiments, the bot can periodically visit each of the webpages at least once a day, once a week, once a month, and/or any suitable time period and/or time interval. In many embodiments, the bot can be programmed to visit each of the one or more webpages an “N” number of times in any period of time and/or time interval.

In several embodiments, method 400 can comprise an activity 401 of using the bot to periodically visit one or more dynamically-generated webpages of a website. In some embodiments, if a particular dynamically-generated webpage being visited by the bot has a version of the pre-rendered webpage already saved (e.g., in a content delivery server), then activity 401 also can automatically identify HTML modifications (e.g., price changes, attribute changes, images, dates) in the particular dynamically-generated webpage compared to the saved version of the pre-rendered webpage, and can automatically retrieve updated HTML code for the particular dynamically-generated webpage. In some embodiments, a bot saves HTML for webpage. In a number of embodiments, a bot can be programmed to search the top “N” number of webpages (e.g., homepages) on one or more websites hosted by a retailer (e.g., physical store, virtual retailer), such as, the top “N” most user requested webpages on the websites. In some embodiments, obtaining the top “N” most requested webpages can be derived using various algorithms and/or methods based on various metrics quantifying at least behavioral user data (e.g., click rates, purchase rates, website views, posts) of an “N” number of previous users (e.g., users 350, 351 (FIG. 3)). In many embodiments, the top “N” most requested webpages can based on determining performance levels for each of the one or more webpages based on multiple criteria (e.g., webpage views, attribute interactions, purchases associated with webpage views, geographic location). In some embodiments, the top “N” webpages of the one or more websites hosted by a retailer can be specific to geographic locations. In many embodiments, the top “N” webpages of one or more websites each can comprise different HTML code specific to that page. In several embodiments, the top “N” webpages of the one or more websites hosted by a retailer can include geographic locations of multiple physical stores of a retailer. As an example, a bot can be programmed to visit 100 of the top performing webpages of websites specific to one or more geographic regions where the bot will retrieve 100 different sets of HTML code to render each of the 100 top performing webpages. For instances, the 100 top performing webpages of a web site of a retailer might include (a) 58 different home pages of the web site for 58 different physical stores of the retailer, (b) 40 different search pages of the website and related to 40 of the 58 different physical stores of the retailer, (c) 1 home page of the web site for users of the web site who have not indicated a home or local store for the retailer, and (d) 1 search page of the web site for users of the website who have not indicated a home or local store for the retailer.

In many embodiments, method 400 can continue by comprising an activity 402 of, in response to using the bot, automatically storing, in a content delivery computer, the HTML code for the one or more dynamically-generated webpages. In these embodiments, automatically storing the HTML code can transform the one or more dynamically-generated webpages from a dynamic content format into a static content format. This transformation in content format can transform the one or more dynamically-generated webpages into one or more pre-rendered webpages. In many embodiments, a bot can send a request to a web server, similar to the way a user sends a request to a web server, and the bot can receive HTML code downloaded from the web server as a dynamically-generated webpage. In various embodiments, a bot can transform (e.g., bot-rendered) the requested dynamically-generated webpage into a static format by saving the HTML code as a static image and can store the HTML code as a pre-rendered webpage (e.g., static format) in the content delivery server, such as content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3). In a number of embodiments, a bot can transform (e.g., bot-rendered) the requested dynamically-generated webpage into a static format by executing software (e.g., scripts) specifically programmed to render HTML code from a dynamic format into a static format (e.g., image) and can store the HTML code as a pre-rendered webpage (e.g., static format, image) in the content delivery server.

In many embodiments, a bot can transform (e.g., bot-rendered) the requested dynamically-generated webpage into a static format using various programming code that can include placeholders (e.g., programed code for a dynamic feature) stored in the pre-rendered webpage. In some embodiments, a dynamic feature replaced by a placeholder and stored in a static format of the pre-rendered webpage can be re-inserted and/or re-built into the pre-rendered webpage after it is displayed on a user computer, such as user computer 340, 341 (FIG. 3), using various programming coded for this specific function and/or computer-run process. As an example, these placeholders can be for dynamically-generated advertisements that are selected in real-time and not in advance of receiving the request to display the webpage. In these embodiments, as noted above, the content delivery system (e.g., content delivery computer or network of computers) also can transform the requested dynamically-generated webpage into a static format by saving the HTML code (which includes the placeholders) as a static image and storing the HTML code as a pre-rendered webpage (e.g., static format) in the memory (e.g., cache memory) of the content delivery server. In some embodiments, the content delivery system (e.g., content delivery computer or network of computers) can also transform the requested dynamically-generated webpage into a static format by executing software (e.g., scripts) specifically programmed to render HTML code (which includes the placeholders) from a dynamic format into a static format (e.g., image) and storing the HTML code as a pre-rendered webpage (e.g., static format with placeholders) in the content delivery server.

In several embodiments, automatically storing the HTML code in the content delivery server can include automatically updating the HTML code for the first one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages when updated HTML code is available for the first one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages. In some embodiments, automatically updating HTML code can also transform the first one of one or more dynamically-generated webpages, as modified, from the dynamic content format into the static content format such that the first one of one or more dynamically-generated webpages, as modified, can be transformed into an updated one of the one or more pre-rendered webpages. In a number of embodiments, the bot can be programmed (e.g., running a script or scripting language) to automatically transform the HTML code of these dynamically-generated webpage from a dynamic content format into a static content format (e.g., an image) such that the one or more dynamically-generated webpages are transformed into one or more pre-rendered webpages. In many embodiments, content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3), upon receiving HTML code of each dynamically-generated webpage from the bot, also can be programmed (e.g., running a script or scripting language) to transform the HTML code of each dynamically-generated webpage from a dynamic content format into a static content format such that the one or more dynamically-generated webpages are transformed into one or more pre-rendered webpages. In several embodiments, upon saving the HTML code of each dynamically-generated webpage received from the bot, content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) also can be programmed (e.g., running a script or scripting language) to transform the HTML code of each dynamically-generated webpage from a dynamic content format into a static content format such that the one or more dynamically-generated webpages are transformed into one or more pre-rendered webpages.

In many embodiments, content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) can be a special-purpose computer with specific computer instructions (e.g., scripts) built directly into the special-purpose computer programed to perform specific, limited functions, such as, storing the pre-rendered webpages into cache memory, transforming dynamically-generated HTML code into a pre-rendered (e.g., static image), and transmitting pre-rendered webpages to application server 320 (FIG. 3) to be piped through application server 320 directly into user computer 340, 341 (FIG. 3), among other special-purpose and/or limited functions. One advantage of using a special-purpose computer can be to reduce the amount of information that can be stored in cache memory therefore increasing the computer speed of processing the request for a pre-rendered webpage.

In some embodiments, the bot can automatically update the HTML code stored in the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3). In many embodiments, the bot can automatically store the newly updated HTML code in the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3). In many embodiments, later on in method 400, the bot can automatically transmit the newly updated HTML code from the cache memory of the content delivery computer to application server 320 (FIG. 3), which can act as a pipeline to transmit the HTML code to user computer 340,341 (FIG. 3). In some embodiments, application server 320 can be programmed not to include memory (e.g., cache) to allow application server to run specific computer processes that do not include storing pre-rendered pages. In several embodiments, dynamically generated pages can be fully overridden based on a schedule.

In various embodiments, method 400 can continue by comprising an activity 403 of receiving a first request for a first requested webpage from a computing device of a user to view the first requested webpage. In some embodiments, application server 320 (FIG. 3) can intercept a first request for a first requested webpage, bypassing or temporarily pausing the web server process, to conduct a search of the memory (e.g., cache memory) in content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) for a pre-rendered webpage that can match the first requested webpage, as described below in further detail.

In many embodiments, application server 320 (FIG. 3) can be a special-purpose computer with specific computer instructions (e.g., scripts) built directly into the special-purpose computer programed to perform specific, limited functions, such as, searching the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) and transmitting pre-rendered webpages from the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) that can be piped through the application server 320 (FIG. 3) into a user computer 340, 341 (FIG. 3), among other special-purpose and limited functions. In some embodiments, application server 320 (FIG. 3) can be a special-purpose computer without memory software (e.g., cache) to allow the special-purpose computer to act as a pipeline to transmit pre-rendered webpages to a user device and/or detect that no matching pre-rendered webpages exist in the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3). In some embodiments, in response to activity 403, when application server 320 (FIG. 3) detects the absence of any pre-rendered webpages matching a request in activity 404 (below), application server 320 can initiate conventional approaches (e.g., server-side rendering, client-side rendering) for downloading HTML code to render webpages to the user 350, 351 (FIG. 3), as described below in greater detail.

In several embodiments, method 400 can continue by comprising an activity 404 of searching the content delivery computer (e.g., content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3)) to identify a match between the first requested webpage of the first request and a first pre-rendered webpage of the one or more pre-rendered webpages stored in the content delivery computer. In many embodiments, searching the memory and/or cache memory of the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) can be performed by application server 320 (FIG. 3).

In some embodiments, next, method 400 can comprise an activity 405 of, upon identifying the match between the first requested webpage and the first pre-rendered webpage and in response to the first request, automatically transmitting, from the content delivery computer for display on the computing device of the user, the HTML code in the static content format for the first pre-rendered webpage. In many embodiments, automatically transmitting the HTML code for the first pre-rendered webpage, from the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) (e.g., special-purpose computer) for display on the computer device of the user, can include transmitting the first HTML code of the first pre-rendered webpage when the first HTML code comprises the placeholder, as described above. In these embodiments, automatically transmitting the HTML code further can include automatically transmitting second HTML code in dynamic content format of for the webpage. In these embodiments, the second HTML code can be the code for the placeholder, such as the dynamically generated advertisements. In many embodiments, searching the memory and/or cache memory of the content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) for a second pre-rendered webpage can also be performed by application server 320 (FIG. 3).

In various embodiments, method 400 can comprise an activity 406 that could be performed instead of activity 405. In activity 406, when searching the content delivery computer (e.g., content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3) does not identify a match in activity 404, activity 406 can use a server-side rendering process to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the user. a dynamically-generated webpage. In several embodiments, wherein when searching the content delivery computer does not identify the match, the computing instructions (e.g., script) can be configured and executed by the one or more processors, to start (e.g., initiate) a server-side rendering process to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the user, a first one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages matching the first requested webpage requested by the user. In many embodiments, initiating a server-side rendering process can be performed by application server 320 (FIG. 3). Server-side rendering process is described below in greater detail in FIG. 7.

In several embodiments, method 400 can comprise an activity 407 that could be performed instead of activities 405 or 406. In activity 407, when searching the content delivery computer does not identify the match, activity 407 can use a client-side rendering process to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the user, a dynamically-generated webpage. In a number of embodiments, when searching the content delivery computer does not identify the match, activity 407 can use a client-side rendering process that can be used to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the user, a first one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages matching the first requested webpage requested by the user. In many embodiments, initiating a client-side rendering process can be started by application server 320 (FIG. 3) by downloading HTML code to be rendered by a browser on the user computer, such as user computer 340-341 (FIG. 3). Client-side rendering process is described below in greater detail in FIG. 8.

In some embodiments, after activity 405, 406, or 407, activity 402 can be repeated to store or update HTML code for a second webpage, and a modified version of activity 403 can be performed, namely, that a second request is received from a second or different computing device of a different user to view the second webpage, or the second request can be received from the original computing device of the original user to view the second webpage. Next a modified version of activity 404 can be performed to identify a match between the second requested webpage of the second request and the stored or updated one of the one or more pre-rendered webpages that can be stored in the content delivery computer. In a number of embodiments, after automatically storing or updating the HTML code in activity 402, as repeated, application server 320 (FIG. 3) can identify a match between the second requested webpage and the updated one of the one or more pre-rendered webpages in a modified version of activity 404. Then, upon identifying the match between the second requested webpage and the updated one of the one or more pre-rendered webpages and in response to the second request, application server 320 (FIG. 3) can automatically transmit, from the content delivery computer, a visible pre-rendered webpage for display on the second computing device of the second user (or the original computing device of the original user), where the updated HTML code can be in the static content format for the updated one of the one or more first pre-rendered webpages. In some embodiments, after application system 320 (FIG. 3) automatically transmits, from the content delivery computer, the visible pre-rendered webpage for display on the second computing device of the second user (or the original computing device of the original user), application server 320 (FIG. 3) can download HTML code that can be associated with multiple dynamic features previously not saved during the transformation of the dynamically-generated webpage into a pre-rendered webpage to render the webpage into an interactive format, as described below in greater detail in FIGS. 6 and 9. In these embodiments, application server 320 (FIG. 3) can download any remaining HTML code that can be associated with multiple placeholders reserved for multiple dynamic features of the pre-rendered webpage to render the webpage into an interactive format as described below in greater detail in FIGS. 6 and 9.

In many embodiments the procedures, processes, and/or activities of system 300 can be performed as an offline process (e.g., outside of making a request to a web server).

In many embodiments, system 300 can include a block 910 of a bot computer, such as bot server 310 (FIG. 3), to perform at least activity 401 (FIG. 4), of using a bot to periodically visit one or more dynamically-generated webpages of a website. In some embodiments, block 910 can automatically retrieve HTML, code for the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the website. Bot computer 910 can also send a request to a web server for a webpage, such as a user computer 340,341 (FIG. 3). In a number of embodiments, after block 910, system 300 can include block 920 of, in response to sending a request to a web server, receiving a webpage (e.g., dynamically-generated webpage), as shown in activity 401 (FIG. 4), as described above in further detail. In several embodiments, after block 920, system 300 can include block 930 of retrieving HTML code of a webpage, as also shown in activity 401 (FIG. 4), as described above in further detail. In some embodiments, after block 930, system 300 can include block 940 of storing pre-rendered webpages in a content delivery computer, such as content delivery server 315 (FIG. 3), as shown in activity 402 (FIG. 4), and as described above in further detail. In various embodiments, system 300 also can include block 950 of, application server 320 (FIG. 3), receiving a user 350, 351 (FIG. 3) request that can be sent from a user computer, such as user computer 340, 341 (FIG. 3) for a webpage, which is described above in further detail with respect to activity 403 (FIG. 4). In many embodiments, after block 950, system 300 can include block 960 of application server 320 (FIG. 3) of searching the content delivery computer, that can identify a match between a requested webpage of a request and a pre-rendered webpage of one or more pre-rendered webpages stored in a content delivery computer, which is described above in further detail with respect to activity 404 (FIG. 4). In a number of embodiments, after block 960, system 300 can include block 970 of identifying whether a requested webpage matches a pre-rendered webpage stored in the content delivery computer, as shown in activity 405 (FIG. 4), as described above in further detail. In several embodiments, after block 970, system 300 can include block 980 of application server, upon identifying a match between a requested webpage and a pre-rendered webpage, facilitating transmission of the pre-rendered webpage from a content deliver computer (in block 940) directly to user computer, in real-time, as shown in activity 405 (FIG. 4), in further detail above. In some embodiments, also after block 970, system 300 can include block 990 of, when searching the content delivery computer does not identify a match in block 970, application server 320 (FIG. 3) initiating a server-side rendering process that can facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the user, a dynamically-generated webpage requested by a request (in block 950). In various embodiments, also after block 970, system 300 can include block 995 of, when searching the content delivery computer does not identify a match in block 970, application server 320 (FIG. 3) initiating a download of minimum HTML code including one or more JavaScript files for the webpage as part of a client-side rendering process can be used to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the user, a dynamically-generated webpage as requested by a request (in block 950).

Each time a user requests a webpage to be displayed on a user device using a server-side rendering process, the HTML code can be uploaded to a web server to be converted into meaningful information before it can be sent to a web browser of the user device. Further each time a user requests a webpage to be displayed on a user device using a client-side rendering process, a minimum amount of HTML code along with one or more JavaScript files (and not the entire content of the webpage in HTML code) can be downloaded to a client device where the webpage can be completed in a rendering process using a browser of a client device. Some experimental results have shown that the techniques described herein can save approximately 0 to 40 seconds during the download and pre-rendering process to display a visible webpage (e.g., first meaningful paint). One advantage of pre-rendering a webpage outside of the web server system is a shorter delay (if any humanly observable delay) to viewing the webpage on a user device requesting the webpage. Another advantage of pre-rendering the webpage outside of the web server system can be reducing the computing cost of generating HTML. When a webpage is pre-rendered, the computing cost of generating the HTML can be paid one time and the HTML can then be delivered to any number of users. Server-side rendering can require more real-time computer resources than pre-rendering a webpage.

In some embodiments, returning to FIG. 3, bot server 310, content delivery server 315, and/or application server 320 can increase the processing speed of the computer system by intercepting a request for a webpage, using a special-purpose computer, and can provide a pre-rendered page directly to the user computer bypassing the web server when a pre-rendered page that matches the request is found. One advantage of using a pre-rendered webpage stored in a content delivery server 315, to respond to a user request to view a webpage can be the increased speed in which the computer system can render a visible webpage on a user computer. Another advantage of using a pre-rendered webpage stored by the content delivery server 315 can be a reduction in the amount of computer resources used to respond to the request since a web server does not have to run processes and/or computer-runs to render a webpage to the user. Additionally, the pre-rendered webpages are stored in a memory of a content delivery system using a computer process performed outside of the web server computer run time and/or an offline process that does not affect and/or compete with the multiple computer functions of a web server responding to multiple requests. In many embodiments, the techniques described herein can provide several technological improvements by freeing up processors to do perform other work.

A number of embodiments include a system. The system can include one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions configured, when executed by the one or more processors.

 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising: using a bot to periodically visit the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of a website to automatically retrieve the HTML code for the at least the portion of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the website.
 13. The method of claim 12, wherein using the bot to periodically visit one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the website further comprises: automatically identify modifications of the at least the portion of the first one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the website.
 14. The method of claim 13, wherein: using the bot further comprises: using the bot to visit each of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages at least once every six hours to automatically retrieve the HTML code, as updated, for the at least the portion of the first one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages of the web site; and further comprising: searching the content delivery computer to identify the match between the second requested webpage of the second request and the updated one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages stored in the content delivery computer.
 15. The method of claim 11, further comprising: in response to receiving the first request, searching the content delivery computer to identify a match between the first requested webpage of the first request and the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages stored in the content delivery computer; and in response to receiving the second request, searching the content delivery computer to identify a match between the first requested webpage of the second request and the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages stored in the content delivery computer; and transmitting the HTML code in the status content format for the first one of the one or more pre-refendered webpages further comprises: upon identifying the match between the first requested webpage and the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages and in response to the first request, automatically transmitting, from the content delivery computer for display on the computing device of the first user, the HTML code in the static content format for the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages.
 16. The method of claim 11, wherein: the one or more dynamically-generated webpages comprise a homepage of a website; and the one or more dynamically-generated webpages comprise different homepages of the website for different store locations of a retailer.
 17. The method of claim 11, wherein: automatically storing the HTML code further comprises automatically storing the HTML code in cache memory of the content delivery computer; and automatically transmitting the HTML code further comprises automatically transmitting the HTML code from the cache memory of the content delivery computer.
 18. The method of claim 11, wherein: automatically storing the HTML code further comprises automatically storing, in the content delivery computer, first HTML code for an entirety of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages, wherein automatically storing the first HTML code transforms the entirety of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages from the dynamic content format into the static content format such that the entirety of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages are transformed into one or more entirely pre-rendered webpages; and automatically transmitting the HTML code further comprises: automatically transmitting, from the content delivery computer for display on the computer device of the first user, the first HTML code in the static content format for the first one of the one or more entirely pre-rendered webpages.
 19. The method of claim 11, further comprising: searching for the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages that matches the first requested webpage of the second request; and when searching does not identify the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages that matches the first requested webpage of the second request: automatically using a server-side rendering process to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the second user, one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages matching the first requested webpage of the second request.
 20. The method of claim 11, further comprising: searching for the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages that matches the first requested webpage of the second request; and when searching does not identify the first one of the one or more at least partially pre-rendered webpages that matches the first requested webpage of the second request: automatically using a client-side rendering process to facilitate displaying, on the computing device of the second user, one of the one or more dynamically-generated webpages matching the first requested webpage of the second request.
